Indefinite Delivery Contract N0017819D7232

This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) award by the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is part of the Navy's SeaPort-NXG multiple award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle. The contract provides engineering, technical, and programmatic support services to the Department of the Navy across 23 functional areas. The prime contractor, Battelle Memorial Institute, is a large non-profit research and development organization that will deliver a range of research, testing, development, and technical support services through task orders issued under the $500 ceiling value contract. The contract has a base period of 5 years and an option for an additional 5 years, with a total period of performance through January 1, 2029. This award did not utilize any small business set-asides, and work will be performed primarily in Columbus, Ohio.

The original SeaPort-NXG solicitation was a competitive procurement issued by NAVSEA to replace the previous SeaPort-e IDIQ contract. The solicitation sought proposals from offerors to demonstrate experience in the 23 functional areas in order to be awarded one of the multiple IDIQ contracts. Awards were to be made without discussions based on initial proposals. This contract vehicle allows NAVSEA and other Navy systems commands to efficiently access Battelle's extensive scientific and technical capabilities through the streamlined task order process, supporting a variety of critical defense research, development, testing, and technical support requirements.
